Sarah Palin: Second term for Obama ‘catastrophic’

Even before a winner was declared in the presidential contest, Sarah Palin sounded a pessimistic note on Tuesday night, saying that a second term for President Barack Obama will mean a “catastrophic” blow to the economy.

“Unfortunately, we know what we will get with four more years of President Obama,” the former GOP vice presidential nominee told Fox News’s Greta Van Susteren. “This really is a catastrophic set-back to our economy and to any opportunity that we would have for Supreme Court justices to be appointed who would be strict adherents to the traditional interpretation of what our Constitution says.”

Palin added that she hoped “things can turn around” before the end of the night.

“I’m crossing my fingers, Greta, and hoping things can turn around in the remaining hours of the evening,” she said, striking a resigned tone.

Later in the interview, Palin ran through a litany of problems that, she suggested, are associated with Obama— and expressed disbelief that voters would go down that path.

“I just cannot believe, though, that the majority of Americans would believe that incurring more debt is good for our economy, for our children’s futures, for job creators,” she said. “I cannot believe that the majority of Americans would believe it’s OK not to follow the Constitution and not have a budget. And I can’t believe the majority of Americans say it’s OK to rely on foreign sources of energy instead of drilling and mining our own resources.

“It’s a perplexing time for many of us right now, if things continue in this trend that we have seen earlier tonight,” she added.

As for you Romney Trolls -- you're probably not even here anymore, are you? Good riddance as well, then! But if you are still around, bear in mind you are as responsible for Romney's defeat as Romney himself.

And a last bit of advice for Tagg Romney. Tagg, don't even think of running for president anytime within your lifetime. Maybe one of your children can take up the mantle. But not you. It would be too weird, every generation of Romney running for president like that.

It will be fun to watch Faux tomorrow. Starting with the 3 stooges on Fox and Friends and finishing with that smug jerk Hannity the hater. How will Dickie Morris, Megyn, Karl, Charlie, Greta, Neil, the Donald and $arah explain how they could be so wrong. Apparently that Benghazi marathon didn't work out to well.

Maybe Faux viewers should reconsider their blind alligence to the b---s--- they deliver daily.

If Obama does not right his course, just watch what happens to the gas prices, Electric Bills, Unemployment, foreign Policy...omg...people, what were you thinking ? I just can hardly believe the American people did this.God help us.Not by much , but that's all it takes.

Sarah spoke the truth. Probably, Obama will try to get revenge on her for having done so.

Sarah just said out loud what every sensible person in America was thinking. How in hell could the voters commit mass suicide? Obama's 2008 win could be passed off as temporary insanity. We'd done the same thing before. Remember Carter in 76? But we came back and corrected our mistake. Remember what happen in 1980? we dumped Carter.

Obama is a disaster. And there's no relief. If something were to happen to Obama, we'd be stuck with Average-Joe Biden. And there's no doubt about it that Average-Joe is a 1st class nut-case.

Get ready for an economic trainwreck. Obama won't stop it. Hell, Obama will get his revenge. The GD S.O.B. hates white people and America. Now, he can really destroy both.

I heard over the TV that about 73 percent of the voters are white, which means that only about 27 percent are other-than-white. So to all my fellow whites who might read this, I ask this question: "why are you so F'king stupid?"

So you can't see the need for compromise in the interest of the NATION?? All you can see is glee in the possibility of further obstruction?? Look in the mirror pal, YOU are the reason the republicans lost.
